Anne-Laure DE FRANSSU (Anne-Laure de Franssu) is a documentary filmmaker.

After university studies and a film school, Anne-Laure de Franssu made the Ateliers Varan in 1997 and produced "You will be a man, Félix". Very soon after, she returned to Africa (Ivory Coast), where she grew up, to make her documentary film "The Palabres Tree" (1999). She then directed the films "Sini makônô, waiting for tomorrow" (2001), "Yere sorôkô, going to seek oneself" (2007) and "Sou Hami, the fear of the night" (2011). With her documentaries, she questions in various ways the link she has with the African continent.

At the same time, Anne-Laure de Franssu created the association "II mots en Images" to conduct video workshops. She thus contributed to the making of the film "Look, dear parents" by Mory Coulibaly, and to a collection of six video letters of 10 minutes each entitled "I was there, so I remember", produced with people with the Alzheimer disease. This work gave rise to an installation in mid-2016 in Perpignan and to the publication of an artist's book. Now, she lives on the Spanish border, in the south of France, and has completed the feature documentary "The backwash / Le Ressac" (2019) which questions the construction of memory, around the Camp de Rivesaltes memorial (Pyrénées Orientales).
